I do, in fact, have a working system. I typed some Sanskrit and Greek earlier this morning, with no problem. I'm on 11.10 Oneiric, and gnome-shell (not Unity, probably because of the XIM issue recently mentioned). I described what I did to get a working system here:
I have applied this to two installations, a desktop and a laptop, both with gnome-shell, and ibus+m17n is working on both.
I had to compile the deb files using Alex Lee's instructions separately on each machine (the debs produced appeared to be specific to the machine I compiled on). But I feel the situation is fragile; I'm still seeing some very occasional corruption in situations I can't properly define (Java applications?).
